Arntz tranny tunnel
Shown here is the removable section of the tranny tunnel. With the big engine setback in all the Arntz / Butler cars, you can remove the transmission while seated if you desire. Only a few very late Butlers had this and all Arntz Type 4 cars. I have no idea what the many cutouts are for  Also shown are the two triangulation tubes that connect the center of the cowl hoop to the 2 main frame rails for increased rigidity. The 3rd leg of the roll bar (not shown) also attaches to the same point on the passenger side frame rail. This is Arntz Type 4 only as well.

alternator fuse with power distribution
I upgraded my electrical system to handle my twin SPAL fans (18A x 2 = 36 AMPS) by installing a modern Alt fuse power box. I used 4 gauge cable from alt to fuse and fuse to battery. It now serves my twin fans and main harness from this point and will give me an underhood power point.

ERA 289 FIA shoulder harness mount
Roll bar mount for raising the shoulder harness. Moved one of the belt anchors to the outside of the roll bar. For the inside anchor I welded a bracket on the bar. Point was to be symmetrical to where I mounted the seat. Did not mount the seat as suggested in the "offset" position. Wanted it directly back from the pedals. Did lose some leg room by not doing the normal "offset".

Here is a shot just before I started her in the drive.
It has taken me about 5 years to get to this point and boy is this fun!

Mcleod steel flywheel for 460
This also shows my home made engine plate I made with a jig saw and a nice set of files. Trick was to use the old rusted one as my template and the starter bolt holes and register bore was my datum point to ensure correct starter alignment.

Street Beasts Sidepipes
Street Beasts sidepipe builder makes them to "turn down", not "point out, like "real Cobra's". Needless to say, we "modified them to point straight out, like "real Cobras"
